Do any of you planelopnik bros have an original picture of an F-86 Sabre I can use for an upcoming article?

Does it have to be flying?

Not technically an F-86 as it is the navy variant, but her is one I took a few years ago at Reno.

I have a few shots of the ones on the ground at the Pima Air And Space Museum. Will check to see if I have any usable ones from the heritage flights they do here.

This is the best I can do. It was a lousy day for flying in Ft. Worth that day, and I had my old kit. You are free to use them if you like, though I'd appreciate a credit.

Kinja'd!!!

Preferably, but I'm open.

Golden. Now I just need to find time to actually write.

Cool. I just wish I had some blue sky that day. The Snowbirds flew also, and it's the only time I've seen them and didn't get any decent pictures. These really aren't up to my current standards, but they're okay. Looking forward to the article! The Sabre is the plane that got me interested in aviation way back in the day.

I'll see what I can find in the archives, but it'll be a few hours. I'm still at work.

No worries, I can't post the story till tomorrow.

Guess I'll need to bring my "A" game since expectations are raised.
